Hi Travis, there is also an experimental tree-based system browser here : http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/Alt-Browser.html It goes all the way towards removing all the panes, starting with regrouping packages in groups based on prefix or categories, all the way to system categories. It's usable on Pharo 2.0; I'm planning to tie it completely with RB so that everything you do with it appear as a RB undoable change Thierry Le 16/11/2012 13:45, Stéphane Ducasse a écrit :
Hi Travis
Welcome :)
Have a look at Nautilus in Pharo20. It supports groups, packages, categories, refactoringsâ¦. Multiple selection, multiple method browsing. Nautilus has a plugin architecture. Pavel wrote periscope to suport fast navigation.
Since we changed a lot the package structure + announcements, currently packages are not displayed with trees but this was the plan. Ben was waiting that we stop changing everything and we are getting there. Esteban will probably rewrite using spec.

I'm just moving to pharo, and wanted to port the "package-pane browser" that I originally wrote for Smalltalk-80 and then ported to Squeak. The squeak code obviously doesn't run in pharo, and I wanted to ask whether anyone had already ported it (or something like it).
Basically, the tool is just like the standard system browser, except that it parses the class category names into a 2-level hierarchy, making the top-level list much smaller and more manageable (see the screen shot below).
Does this already exist?
...any reply appreciated...
